Today’s Recipes: Strawberry Bites and Oatmeal Cookie Fruit Pizza
Strawberry BitesIngredients:
- 12 fresh strawberries
- 12 small pieces of Brie cheese
- 12 basil leaves (preferably Thai basil)
- Toothpicks
- Balsamic glaze (store-bought or homemade)
- Prepare the Strawberries:
- Wash and dry the strawberries.
- Insert a toothpick through the side of each strawberry, making sure it's secure and not top-heavy.
- Add the Basil Leaf:
- Thread one basil leaf onto each toothpick, placing it next to the strawberry.
- Prepare the Brie Cheese:
- Cut the Brie cheese into small pieces.
- Place each piece of Brie into a small candy paper to help it hold its shape.
- Assemble the Bites:
- Attach a piece of Brie cheese to the toothpick, securing it with the strawberry and basil.
- Add Balsamic Glaze:
- Drizzle balsamic glaze over each assembled bite.
- If making your own glaze, reduce 1 cup of balsamic vinegar over medium heat in a small saucepan until it reduces to about 1/4 cup (10-14 minutes).
- Serve:
- Arrange the strawberry bites on a pretty plate for presentation and enjoy!
- 1 1/2 cups oats
- 1 cup whole wheat flour
- 2/3 cup packed brown sugar
- 1/3 cup oil

- Prepare the Oatmeal Cookie Base:

- Mix the oats, whole wheat flour, cinnamon, salt, baking powder, and baking soda in a bowl. Set aside.
- In another bowl, mix the brown sugar, egg, oil, and vanilla extract until well combined.
- Combine the wet and dry ingredients until just mixed; the mixture will be slightly crumbly.
- Spread the mixture onto a parchment-lined baking stone or cookie sheet, shaping it into a 10-inch round cookie.
- Bake for about 12-15 minutes or until the edges are golden and crispy.
- Let the cookie cool completely before adding the topping.
- Prepare the Cream Cheese Topping:
- In a mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, yogurt, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract.
- Mix until smooth and creamy.
- Assemble the Fruit Pizza:
- Spread the cream cheese mixture evenly over the cooled oatmeal cookie base.
